380th game life

After Zhengde succeeded to the throne, the reforms with great fanfare finally began. In fact, Liu Jin had already done a reform before, but that time it was made by the Chinese officials, and it was not discussed by the court at all. The content of the reform is also varied. How can it be done? How to control people, and this time, although there are only ten, but all of them point directly to the sharpest issues in the whole world: government, taxation, land, military system and part of the school system.

Liu Jin was in power when he was in power, but any opponents of his reform immediately arrested or dismissed officials in various names, but this time it was issued by the cabinet and the six Ministry of “initiatives”, which were supported by the entire sect system, and Yang Ling and the cabinet ’s People have repeatedly discussed and improved policies and plugged loopholes in response to various questions that may arise. Every time a new article was introduced, it detailed the shortcomings of the old system, what parts of the new system were targeted, and why the changes were made so that opponents could not open their mouths, so Once approved by the emperor, the policy was launched smoothly.

“Daming Disruption Law”, “Daming Recruiting Law”, “Daming Taxation Law”, “Daming Industry and Commerce Law”, “Daming Immigration Law”, “Daming Imperial Examination Law”, “Government Exam Law” were introduced one by one The hinterland was infested with soldiers and bandits, and the northwestern mountains and rivers protruded, injecting a fresh spring into the muddy and obsolete Chao Gang.

There were not many people of insight in the court, especially this rebellion against rebels has really become a powerful support for reform. In a short period of time, the rebels have gathered so many responders. The countless wealthy and rich people in the major cities in the north have not only broken their homes. Moreover, the collapse of the court and the financial constraints of the court awakened them from the illusion of the prosperous world. These tragedies deeply touched them. They also knew that public opinion could not be violated. The court should carry out some reforms.

Emperor Zhengde made the decision to clear and exempt tax and food in Gyeonggi, Shandong, Henan, and Hebei. He also announced that the relocated people should return to Linshi, Lushe, and cattle breeds to soothe the hearts of the displaced people, and to provide various preferential policies to immigrants to Kanto, to develop the land owned by individuals, not to pay money within three years, etc. Since then, many normal people have also moved their minds.

Especially those with many children in the family, including all military families, because it is in accordance with folk practice. The family property is inherited by the eldest son-in-law, and the rest of the sons can only make a living by themselves. Taking advantage of their youth to create a foundation outside the customs and owning their own land and land, why not do it? What’s more, these people have no worries. Once they fail, they return to their homes. Many young people who are not eldest sons at home have signed up, and the influx of migrants from the Northeast Sanwei began to increase a large number of pioneers who do not carry their families. These people will become the main force of regiment training.

The interior of the court was also rectified. Now the cabinet is headed by Jiao Fang, but Li Dongyang ’s torrents retreat to the old Jiao Ge who was able to retaliate in his later years. He took the initiative to ask for the purpose of inspecting Shandong, Henan, Hebei, Shanxi and other places.

A total of more than 300,000 refugees separated from their homes in these places by war. These people are hay that can be ignited at any time. Although they are begging everywhere now, they still can’t see the mess, but as long as these people are not resettled this winter. Nowhere to live, no clothes, no food, rebellion will happen at any time.

Jiao Fang invited the imperial edict to visit the place as a mission, and urged the local government stores to store grain to reduce prices, discount the banknotes, and give them to the farmers. And ordered the administrative bureaus in the above places to be organized into Lijia and Xinli townships in places where there are many migrants. Placed on the spot to prevent them from continuing to flow.

For the more scattered areas, the migrants are placed in the original household registration of the neighboring states and counties, but they are also newly established and managed, and they are also allocated to the barren fields or the Yellow River retreat, and the cattle are also seeded. To enable the displaced people to engage in production. Farmers have houses and land. There is hope for survival. He would never tie his head to his waistband to rebel.

Major events in North Korea and China were presided over by Yang Tinghe and became the people in charge of North Korea. This is also a subtle power adjustment, which won the full support of Yang Tinghe and the faction. Yang Tinghe abolished the malpractices, reduced the grain and taxation in poor areas, repatriated the palace female musicians, released innocent prisoners, and cleared the amount of empty soldiers. These alone saved the court money every year. More than two million.

The Jiangnan gentry took the opportunity to agitate their interest spokespersons and asked to lower Jiangnan taxation, but Yang Tinghe refused firmly. Jiangnan was the focus of Yang Ling ’s reform. These officials turned to Yang Ling after seeing Yang Ting ’s disapproval, so they could not help but say Yang Ting and many flattery words. He also said that the sufferings of the Jiangnan people were very unbearable.

Yangling knows that Jiangnan is rich in the world, and Jiangnan people have been rich elsewhere, and he knows well in Jiangnan two times. Yang Tinghe ’s poor land is levied less and the rich land is levied a little bit similar to the modern personal income adjustment tax. A very effective tax balancing lever, so Yang Ling was very supportive of him and sent all these lobbying officials back.

Although due to Yang Yiqing’s reasons, the two people were not very good in personal relations, they were able to focus on the overall situation and cooperated with each other’s actions unabashedly. In fact, it is true that Jiangnan people are heavily taxed, but the reason is not the heavy taxation in the court. The root cause is still land mergers and the old tax system.

Land merger itself is not a problem. If all land is owned by the state, is it considered to be the largest land merger? The land belongs to the country, the rich and the gentry, he always wants to cultivate, even if he really has the power to return all the land to the peasants, so that everyone has their own land, no matter whether the peasant manages the family’s finances, cultivates the land and conducts business Not to mention, the quality is also high and low. After hundreds of years, the survival of the fittest, the land will naturally be concentrated in the hands of a small number of people.

The problem is that the land mergers are all relatives of the imperial family and the family of Quanhuan. Once they collectively occupy the land, they use their privileges to hide the land and evade taxes. The more land is merged, the less the royal government collects taxes. The relatives of the emperor, the knights, the powerful eunuchs, the distinguished squires, relying on privileges, bribe the government, seize the household registration, conceal the tax evasion, and evade the service.

In this way, the imperial tax was imposed on the self-cultivating farmers. The original imperial tax formulated by the imperial court was a poll tax. These unprivileged peasant fields did not have much, but the taxes paid were more and more, so they became more and more poor, and the fields had to be pawned. For the rich, they became tenants, so the royal government’s taxation also fell short.

A whiplash method, spreading acres into acres, solved this problem from the system of service. The privilege of cracking down on illegal gentry, and at the same time, according to the rich and the poor and the thin land of the localities, the official set the maximum ratio of field rent, not allowing them to exploit the farmers excessively, which solves this problem.

The court’s new land regulations and tax formulation made the old system’s malpractice clear, and the new land tax law only reintroduce the taxes and taxes stolen by the gentry into the court’s treasury. They can no longer make arrogant money. They are still rich. Therefore, they are neither forced to rebellion, nor dared to make a fuss about the New Deal that the court agreed to implement. The pens of Kedao are staring at their eyes and waiting to catch their problems.

These people resented and angered, so they set the fire on Yang Ling, the first advocate of the New Deal, and continued to attack him for illegal participation in politics and to handle affairs of the government. Yang Ling was prepared for this, and Yang Ling immediately became ill.

Yang Ling’s “illness” began immediately and asked the emperor Feng to order him to preside over the bandits and reform the political affairs, saying that he was suffering from a serious illness. Respectfully recuperate the patient, and the officials who attacked him were glared. Immediately afterwards, it was reported that Yang Ling wanted to be a concubine, and this group of people could not help laughing and crying: Seriously ill? The disease of the widowed?

But if you attacked me to intervene in Korean politics, I would go home and ask my little wife to play. What else can you do?

Yang Ling’s rogue play made these people really unable to think of a countermeasure for a while.

The current Zhengde Emperor is no better than it was then. The inner court was firmly in his hands, and the cabinet, six ministries, and kedao all supported the emperor’s new policy, so he didn’t care about the opposition of a few officials.

The Emperor Zhengde continued to play the three edicts within three days, and it was not the middle purpose. Instead, through the official edict from His Excellency Nadi, he asked Yang Ling to serve as a political director. Such an edict was to be copied in the Di Bao for the ministers. Zhengde clearly expressed his position and told the people of the world: I support him!

According to the rumors of some eunuchs in the inner court, the emperor of these three emperors was cursing people, but after Yang Ting and Runbi, it was more succinct.

Early in the morning on the first day, Du Fu, the **** of the ceremony, came to hold the first imperial edict: “The outline is corrupt, the national strength is weak, the army is corrupt, and the financial constraints. All are due to officials playing old loopholes. After a long period of drought and rain, I deeply rely on it. The state is in a hurry, and when the state official releases his shoulders, he will give up his merits! With Yi Duzhong’s service, he will work in harmony with the ministers, and it will not be hindered by words.

Yang Ling took the aim. Shane. euphemism.

Early in the morning of the next day, Du Fu came again with the second decree: “Fang Jin is in a difficult state. Xu Qinghong You, who is optimistic, can’t say anything but want to go away. , I can help. The public official cannot participate in politics, it is not my law, but it is the corruption of the custom, Yang Ling, the assistant minister, must act quickly, and I cannot bear my grace. ”

The emperor’s relatives and ministers and ministers all loved to hear it. Isn’t that the opportunity to show their faces in the court after their own time? Even the locals who made less money because of the reform of the New Deal clapped their hands. Of course, now Yangling is opening up shipping, and they have great wealth and become a big winner in overseas trade. They have made huge profits and do not care much about the land. The planed meal was ready.

Yang Ling took the order, thank you, and continued to politely.

Early in the morning of the third day, Du Fu dragged his imperial edict to continue to appear: “What is the national discipline? , Jiuqing Kedao must not misunderstand, and there will be blasphemers again, and will be handed over to the governor of the town for investigation! ”

Yang Ling led the mission and thanked the emperor for saying: “Sovereign is so important, and the minister is grateful. When the subject is a little bit better, he will immediately return to the court, and he will worry about the emperor.”

Emperor Wen Zhiyue, who had left the morning after the second day, drove out of the city and went to the door to visit his own femoral brazier to show his favor.

The inquisitive North Korean officials inquired about the affection of the emperor Guoguo today, and their noses were almost flattered: This is different from when the crown prince ascended the throne as emperor. Isn’t this just plain play?

It is they who are playing, if the weight is light, the game is human, in the lustful and ridiculous play, and the road is in front of the eyes of the decayed and corrupt, the corrupt officials, it is this king’s master.

The Yang family does not have a special grand dress. Although Yang Ling ’s identity is valuable, the concubine is the concubine. It stands to reason that there is no need for too extravagant ostentation. It’s not a big deal to get married, it’s too grand to make a joke.

But Yang Ling is a Western-style wedding today. And the emperor also came to participate, which is a great glory.

The glory is not only up and down the Yang Mansion, Jacobs and other priests also feel extremely glorious. This was the first time they had hosted the wedding ceremony after they arrived in Daming, so the church was completely decorated, and the priests put on new robes.

The last time the church was completed, the emperor came to visit and caused a great sensation in the capital. Now they have developed more than 2,000 followers. Although most of them are middle-aged and elderly women, their achievements in this year can be higher than those in the previous years, which are like beggars. Now the emperor is here again, and it is the Duke of Daming who wants to hold the wedding. The influence is bound to be far-reaching.

They have now made contact with the country, and even the pope has heard about their major progress in the East. The priests are forming groups to buy ships, recruit volunteers, and recruit science, culture, and religious books. Preparing to send missionaries to China on a larger scale.

Missionaries scattered in Dongying, Luzon and other places quickly heard from the merchants that their local members had developed in Daming. Because they are more difficult to preach in the local area than in the Ming Dynasty, and the locals in Dongying and Luzon always like to use the opinions and views of the ancient Chinese people as an authority.

Even the ridicule of the locals they received during their missions was the same: “Even the people of the Ming Dynasty didn’t believe in your earth god, nor your theory, and they used it to deceive people.” Daming’s cultural influence in the surrounding small countries is so deep, so they feel that as long as they break through this strong barrier. It is much easier to spread beliefs and doctrines elsewhere.

Yang Ling also dared not underestimate their role. At that time, the Western church always kept up to date with the latest knowledge of Western culture, science and technology. Xu Guangqi, Li Zhizao and Yang Tingyun of the “three pillars of Catholicism” in China at the end of the Ming Dynasty accepted many Western Knowledge. He has made outstanding achievements in mathematics, astronomy, calendar, military, surveying, agriculture and water conservancy.

Keeping in close contact with them and often attracting some Western missionaries will bring many new knowledge and ideas from the West. In particular, they are located in Daming Capital, and they can spread quickly, subtly merge, and influence Daming, which is cultivating new ideas, technology and culture.

To celebrate, there are no officers or soldiers stationed outside the church, but there are many celebratory people, most of whom are young men in their early twenties who are burly and sturdy. Hidden in his arms is a sharp blade. It is often said that there are three layers in the inner layer and three layers in the outer layer. These people are really divided into three layers. The innermost layer is Ouchi Jinyiwei, the middle layer is the guard of the Imperial Horse Guard, the outermost layer is Dongchang Fanzi, the emperor is in So, be careful.

In addition to the three factories and one bathroom, only the Yang family went up and down. At this moment, Yang House was also in a mess. Yang Ling said in a hurry: “I know, I know, I know I shouldn’t tell him. You see. You see, I have drawn pictures for him. This is called a tuxedo. “Swallowtail … can’t turn the tail up?”

All the wives and concubines laughed happily, Tang Yixian said with a pretty face: “Cough, don’t sneer, this is the most satisfactory one of the sixteen dresses that the emperor personally asked someone to make, you see, put on this hat again , Much like … salt bats. ”

Yang Ling stared at her angrily and muttered: “I have said that, the wedding does not need the emperor to do it, he can be a companion wolf, cough! He has to do it all by himself, and he must make me satisfied, the result is now Just show me, this … don’t care about the change, go, go, hurry to the church. ”

Yang Ling wore a black dress, a tall and lingling hat, and went out angrily with a swallow tail. Xue Limei smiled with her mouth covered: “How do I look at our old man not like a swallow, but like a weasel?”

Han Youniang glared at her, and she couldn’t help laughing.

Gao Wenxin said: “Women are like water, there is fish in water, so there is a fishy smell in women, and the man is called stealing. The weasel is more suitable than swallows, just for stealing.”

She secretly, the speaker is unintentional, the listener is intentional, standing there tinglingly, like a slender flower branch into a beautiful rhyme, she can’t help but blush, she glanced quickly, see Gao Wenxin They are also talking and laughing. It wasn’t like satire, that I was relieved in my heart.

Women are not jealous. It’s common to eat jealousy. The reason why the Yangs are married and concubines is that Yang Ling treats them equally and hates women in the family. They are also smart enough to know that competing for flattery will not only win Yang Ling’s favor. On the contrary, they will become the target of the public, and they like the atmosphere now, so they are also trying their best to maintain it. The family who is unwilling to engage in harmonization does not mean to ridicule her.

“Fortunately! Fortunately, not many people visited. Otherwise, this image would have been lost.” Yang Ling touched the majestic and stiff tail, which was purposely fixed with wire, and ignored the snickers of all the bureaucrats in the factory. .

In accordance with the practice of marriage of Catholics in Spain, the wedding is held by the woman ’s parents. The time for the wedding in the church was in the afternoon, so Zhengde didn’t delay the time when he came to Korea. Today is a happy day. Yang Ling fled the church quickly in a scene where all the serious agents were laughing. All the priests looked at the groom’s appearance and laughed, but they were the secret agents of the factory guards. We all have a castle in our chest, and we can’t bear it.

Zhengde is a special man. So he did n’t follow Yang Ling to Yang Mansion. He was standing on the stage and talking to Jacobs, hoping that he would also act as a priest. This was a bit ridiculous. Jacobs was shaking his head desperately with a wry smile. Seeing Yang Ling coming in, Zhengde immediately Throwing away Yapsi and running happily. Look up and down. Gee praised: “Look, I’ll give you custom-made clothes. It’s a fit. Um … But what the westerners wear is really weird.”

Yang Linggan laughed twice, hoping that the wedding would end soon, so as to get rid of this terrible thing, he quickly asked: “Emperor, can the wedding begin?”

“Let’s go, let’s get started!” Emperor Zhengde was wearing a Chinese-style arrow sleeve robe, with a clear eyebrow and a slick lips, but he was a handsome and handsome young boy, who was more than wearing a high hat on his head. too much. He hurried to the corner, picked up a knife and a shield and hurried back.

Yang Ling stunned and said in surprise: “What does the emperor mean?”

Zhengde solemnly said: “According to Western customs, will there not be evil dragons and demons to **** brides, do bridesmaids specialize in confusing demons and groomsmen to assist grooms in eradicating demons from the side? I always feel that using beauty to lose man ’s face, this responsibility still comes from me. Take it on your shoulders, you can’t let Yixian take risks! ”

Yang Ling laughed. He looked up at Jacobs. Jacobs shrugged his shoulders, shook his head and shook his head at him. He could n’t help it. Who would call someone the emperor? It ca n’t be like this, otherwise the Pope organized a brigade and rushed to Daming, and saw that he had changed the ritual …

He and Yang Ling looked at each other for a while, feeling quite uncomfortable …

The bride entered the church. It is unlucky for the bride to make her own dress, and it is necessary to sew the last stitch of the dress before setting off to the salute site, so her dress was also arranged by the emperor Zhengde.

Fortunately, the name of wedding dress does not have the name of a tuxedo (bat), which allows him to give full play to his imagination. The white dress made of fine silk yarn probably has some Western-like dresses, and it is not ugly and very beautiful. .

With a fluffy hem and a slim waist, the holy one is like an angel with a bright yellow veil on her face, holding flowers on her chest, and wearing a crown on her head. She can’t see Adene under the veil. Long came, step by step, very elegant and elegant, Yang Ling looked anxiously.

Adeni didn’t dare to go, she should have worn an orange veil, thin and translucently, but Zhengde understood it as an oriental red hijab. In order to show solemnity, he also deliberately took a piece of royal yellow for exclusive use. Satin, made a yellow cap with octagonal rubies on Adene.

He originally wanted to garnish eight pearls, and it was unlucky to hear the priest say that the pearls were the tears of the bride. So I temporarily found eight rubies and fell on them. Poor Adene couldn’t see the tunnel in front of her. How dare she walk fast, she had to stare at her feet and rub forward step by step.

After a long wedding, the swing was pulled by a pair of little golden boys and girls. Tang Yixian was dressed brightly and accompanied him with a smile. Wu Hanchao and Song Xiaoai blushed. He desperately followed behind Adenie and threw flowers over her head from the flower blue. They were Yang Ling’s innermost groomsmen and bridesmaids. Unexpectedly, Zhengde was a fake public servant. If they had to steal this business from Tang Yixian, the two would lose After losing his job, he became a flower girl.

The unlucky couple met the emperor Zhengde impassively. Both of them could not wait for the wedding to end soon. The good man who did bad things well felt that he was very talented. He listened to others briefly and said that the wedding would look like it looks like.

He stood beside Yang Ling in a vigorous manner, holding the wooden shield with the tiger’s mouth in his left hand and the steel knife in his right hand. In the hymn that Jacobs is a little out of tune, he appreciates the masterpiece he created by himself.

As the priest of ceremonies, Jacobs began to read: “Lord, we come to you. Witness the blessing of the men and women who entered the hall of sacred marriage. According to the purpose of the two, the two united into one, respectfully marry the wedding for life and age Tian Chang; from now on, I like to walk the heavenly path, love, help, teach, and trust each other; Heavenly Father blesses the Yingmen; blesses both the couple and Hong En; inspires the Holy Spirit; loves the Savior; and extols before the Lord of his life. ”

Yang Ling’s eyes were almost sour. He couldn’t see his own bride, so he gave up completely and listened to the priest’s instructions. “Ali Adeni, would you like this man to be your husband and sign a marriage contract with him? No matter sickness or health, or any other reason, love him and take care of him. Respect him. Accept him and always be loyal to him Will not last until the end of life? ”

This sounds familiar. Yang Lingqing couldn’t help looking at the young girl. The young girl looked at him with a smile, sweet and bitter in her eyes. Obviously, he remembered the bitter and difficult time at the same time.

“I’m in the name of the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit …”.

“There is also a holy angel,” Emperor Zhengde hurriedly reminded.

Holy angel? What about angels? Yang Ling was a little surprised. He looked up and saw that Jacobs grinned as if he was about to cry. The priest followed up with a vague sentence, and then raised his voice and said: “Announce you formally married, and ask the Lord to give Blessing, the ring will represent your mutual restraint. ”

“Ring! Emperor, ring!”

“Huh? Oh!” Emperor Zhengde stood there with his heart on his chest, and was calculating the advantages and disadvantages of this wedding and Chinese wedding, so that he could use it in his own wedding. When the priest reminded him that he was sober, he was busy “Boom” dropped his sword shield, touched it in his arms, and only listened to the sound of “Ding Dong”, a long string of gold rings was pulled from his arms.

The people in the church were stunned by the creativity of Emperor Zhengde again, and Yang Ling realized why he added the blessing of the Holy Angel. It turned out that Westerners married at that time and popular pure gold rings. Gold represents innocence, so no diamonds were used. The style used at that time was “double-link” or “three-link”, which could be nested together.

Originally, two were just for couples. The reason why they are three consecutive is to represent the Holy Trinity, Father, and Son. The third ring will be given to a special person, such as a matchmaker or witness. Zhengde thinks this is not so good. You have something he doesn’t have. It’s unreasonable to say. Isn’t everyone a friendship?

So this man made a large series of gold rings, heavy in his arms, did not say that a ring must represent a deity? Plus those big angels, angels are not enough?

Today, there is such a master, Yang Ling, who has a lot of ingenuity, has no skin tone, so he has to pick two from the long string of rings and exchange the ring with Adni. Zhengde and Tang Yixian began to distribute it to everyone with a smile, a man with no bias.

Yang Ling took the opportunity to take Adeni’s ground gauze off, and the bride was carefully dressed, bright and attractive, like a delicious strawberry, bright and colorful, exuding a **** atmosphere. Adeni smiled sweetly to her groom, turned her eyes, and smiled to Tang Yixian: “One Immortal, then!” He said that he threw the bouquet away.

Tang Yixian subconsciously caught the flowers, but did not understand the reason. Zhengde did not inquire about this step. He thought that even if the ceremony was over after the exchange of rings, he hurried back to Yang Ling. He murmured in a low voice: “Look at you, just throw away the flowers when you don’t need them. Although she is your righteous girl, she can’t be used by others now.”

Yang Ling rolled her eyes and explained: “My emperor, this … this means that whoever receives the bouquet will be the next bride …”.

“What are you staring at? You didn’t mean to be my bride,” Yang Ling groaned: “I mean the next girl to be married and to be a bride, it is a blessing to her, I also specifically told Ade Ni, I want to give it to a fairy. Emperor, I … I have a headache. “.

Zhengde suddenly realized that he was like this, haha. Okay, this is good. Then … what about me? What do I have to do? She is going to be a bride, can I do it without being a groom? ”

Yang Ling suddenly stopped talking, giving the bride a flower ball, and really giving it to the groom. He just asked Joshua Adeni casually, just to know. At that time, garter stockings had appeared in the West, and noble men preferred to use garter stockings than women. They used colorful garter stockings and had beautiful lace on the socks. And decorated with a bow on the outside of the knee.

At the wedding, if the groom takes off the bride’s stockings, the person thrown is the man who was blessed next. Of course Yang Ling won’t say it, kidding! Foreigners can’t pass on any dross for domestic use. At that time, the European nobles got married, and the bride had to wear underwear to lie on the bed and let the guests kiss. This was not enough.

Yang Ling shook his head like a rattle: “No. No, no man.”

Zhengde said anxiously: “How could it be? Why don’t you have a man, oh! Or I’ll ask Adnie.”

“Don’t don’t, uh … the minister suddenly remembered it, ha ha ha!” Yang Linggan laughed, unbuttoned the button, and took off the coat with the swallow’s tail off: “Emperor, you put it on. Hats. The person who wears them is the next groom. ”

Zhengde is overjoyed. Immediately took it over and put the long coat on his body, then buckled the top hat over his head. Yang Ling finally gave him a sigh, and he felt a bad breath.

When the ceremony is over, it is time to go back to the house for a feast. The church and Yang Mansion are not far away, just on foot, the newlyweds walked side by side with the bridesmaids and bridesmaids nearby.

Under the setting sun, a golden chimney bathed in a chimney hat, a swallow tail with a high toe behind it, and today’s holy Zhu Zhuozhao holding a shield in his left hand and a knife in his right hand became the most beautiful scenery in the wedding team.
